USC Trojans Exposed By UCLA Bruins, Says Coach Eric Musselman

Transcript

00:00How important is it for you guys to take the things that you guys learned from us from this game?

00:04We got more exposed than them. I don't want to get that twisted. They won the game.

00:09I mean, I think you learn from every game whether you win or lose.

00:14So there's, you know, I'll watch the tape and next time we get together, we'll try to correct some of the things.

00:28You know, tonight the free throws, I mean that's, I'm not going to wave a magic wand and change that

00:36because you can't duplicate, tie game, crowd. I can't do that in practice, you know. I'd love to try.

00:45Coach, you guys took 31 three-pointers today. I was wondering, was that part of the game plan?

00:52Yeah, I would say we knew that they kept the lane compact.

00:56You know, to be honest with you, the 31 threes probably kept us in the game in the first half.

01:02Without making the threes in the first half, we're probably down by a much larger margin.

01:08I thought in the second half there was probably three to four threes that we shouldn't have taken.

01:14But, you know, whatever the percentage is, we end up shooting, you know, 36% from three.

01:20That's a pretty good number, especially when you take the volume of that.
